Tabali 2019 Transversal Red Blend

Tasting Notes The 2019 Transversal opens with enticing floral and herbaceous aromas layered over ripe red and black fruits, accented by hints of ash, sweet spice, and subtle cigar box notes. On the palate, it is dry, broad, and structured, delivering fresh plum, blackberry, spice, and graphite with a chalky, finely grained tannin profile. The wine’s texture is silky yet powerful, with vibrant acidity and a long, elegant finish. Its varietal composition—30% Cabernet Franc, 30% Malbec, 25% Syrah, and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon—draws from four distinct vineyards across Limarí and Maipo, each contributing freshness, depth, and typicity. This blend pairs beautifully with grilled lamb, roasted game, mushroom dishes, and herb‑infused preparations, as its earthy, spicy, and dark‑fruited character complements savory, umami‑rich foods. Its structure and freshness also make it a strong match for aged cheeses and slow‑braised meats.
